Cape Town Yoga & Martial Arts Retreat

Our retreat is an opportunity for you to create more space in your life through practices of yoga, mindfulness, and martial arts. It is an investment in your self-care and an opportunity to focus on well-being, connect with others, and learn new self-expression practices.

This time is about you, as you will be given the tools to become your alchemist. Yoga practices taken from the Himalayan Kriya yoga style focus on spiritual alignment through the energetic system using breathwork, meditation, and somatic movement. Martial arts classes include Muay Thai & Jiu Jitsu. They are beginner-friendly and aimed at empowering you to feel strong, grounded, and dignified.

This retreat is based on the practices of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and positive psychology so you are leaving with a newfound sense of calm and joy to weave into your daily life.
